I'm as curious about this as others. I work for them and they didn't tell me a damn thing about this announcement. Nothing. Zero. Like it wasn't even going to happen. You think they'd tell the service reps at least a tiny bit of info eh? No. wrong. .....

Probably something they don't want reps talking about until its officially announced. Some sites are speculating it's an "early upgrade" system that will make it easier to buy a new phone without paying full retail every time.
